L'objectif de la présente invention est, par exemple, de faciliter la modification de paramètres d'un dispositif de commande d'équipement industriel. Une unité d'acquisition de paramètres (101) d'un dispositif de modification de paramètres (10) acquiert une pluralité de paramètres d'un dispositif de commande d'équipement industriel (20). Une unité d'acquisition d'informations de disposition de table (102) acquiert des informations de disposition de table associées au modèle du dispositif de commande d'équipement industriel (20). En fonction de la pluralité de paramètres et des informations de disposition de table, une unité de modification de paramètres (105) provoque l'affichage par une unité d'affichage (15) d'une table pour la modification de la pluralité de paramètres. Une unité d'écriture de paramètres (106) écrit, dans le dispositif de commande d'équipement industriel (20), la pluralité de paramètres qui ont été modifiés dans la table.
